High myopic patients with and without foveoschisis: morphological and functional characteristics.

2020

Purpose: Myopic foveoschisis (MF) is characterized by the splitting of the retinal layers in the fovea of patients with high myopia (HM). MF may progress into foveal detachment or macular hole formation with consequent loss of central vision. The aim of this study is to investigate morphological and functional changes of the macular region in myopic subjects with and without foveoschisis. Design: Observational, cross-sectional, comparative study. Methods: Forty-eight patients with HM and 24 healthy controls were evaluated by spectral domain-optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT), multifocal electroretinography (mfERG) and microperimetry (MP-1) tests to assess macular thickness, functionality…

The Prevalence of Amblyopia in Germany

2015

Amblyopia is a condition in which reduced visual acuity is not directly caused by an organic defect (1). Amblyopia can develop when an infant or small child suffers from strabismus. Although both eyes are healthy, different images are formed on each fovea centralis (where vision is sharpest) and on other corresponding locations on the retina; this is in contrast to individuals without strabismus. To prevent double vision the child’s brain suppresses the image produced by one eye. Complete visual ability cannot develop in this eye during the sensitive phase of visual development (2). Approximately half of amblyopia cases (3) are caused by uncorrected higher refractive errors, which are frequ…
